I have a 6 year old neutered male. He had adrenal surgery for the left sev=
eral months ago and has been doing well except that the hair hasn't grown b=
ack very much so far. He was still having trouble urinating after the surg=
ery so the vet tried antibiotic. After several weeks it hadn't improved th=
ings that much so he started Lupron this week (the vet thinks he may have a=
very tiny right side adrenal problem). The last few nights he has awakene=
d me coughing and gagging severely for 1-2 minutes. It sounds like he's tr=
ying to cough something out. Is this just dust or could it be a side effec=
t of Lupron?
